The National Association of Resident Doctors, NARD, has scheduled to meet with the Federal Government on June first, for the review of hazard allowance for health workers.
On April first, Resident doctors across the country began an indefinite strike following the expiration of a sixty-day ultimatum given to the Federal Government on January twenty-fifth for the payment of arrears of salaries of house officers, review of hazard allowance, among other demands.
After several meetings, promises and signing of agreements between the government and NARD, the association decided to suspend its strike on April twelfth. And gave the government a four-week ultimatum to meet its demands; the ultimatum ended on May tenth.
The President of the NARD, Dr. Uyilawa Okhuaihesuyi, made these known in a chat with the press.
